Joyful Noise

The Joyful Noise Choir is an all volunteer choir. All are welcome – young and old, meek and bold. The only requirements are a willingness to sing and a mind open to learning.

Choir members lead the congregation in hymnal selections and present performance pieces nearly every Sunday of the year. Musical selections range from spirituals to doo-wops, classical pieces to modern rock. From chanting rounds to four-part harmonies, the choir has something to offer for everyone.

The choir is open to all ages and experience levels and currently meets Sunday morning in the sanctuary at 9:30am with rehearsals every Thursday in the sanctuary at 7:00pm.

September 2023 Theme – Returning Home
As we walk this journey in life, we can, at times, be tossed and turned by conditions and circumstances. We can, occasionally, get thrown off course and lose our way. We can, now and again, forget who we are. Has anything like that ever happened to you? If it has, then this month will serve you in a profound way as we Return Home, home to the Source of All Good. September 3 – Returning Home to the ChangelessThis Sunday, we build our foundation for handling change—any kind of change, whether it’s the type of change that causes us to say “Thank Goodness” or “Goodness, No!” Using Jesus’ analogy of the man who built his house on solid rock, we return home to the ever-present, unchanging Power of God. September 10 – Returning Home to PeaceIn this Sunday’s world, there is a lot of talk about peace. Actually, there is a lot of talk about the absence of peace and the turmoil that surrounds us. These conversations are often accompanied by blame of corporations, countries, governments, or rebel factions for being the cause. But is that true? As spiritual people, we know intellectually that peace begins with us, but do we actually live that it our hearts? This Sunday, we return home to Peace with some powerful ideas and practices that will live long past today’s service. September 17 – Returning Home in FaithWe could all benefit by returning home in faith, couldn’t we? The real question is: faith in WHAT? We all have a lot of faith, but in what do we have faith? Often times, especially in challenging times, our faith in misplaced. This Sunday, we return home to a faith in the beneficence of God, in the Unity of all life and in the integrity of the Universe. Come this Sunday and test your faith! September 24 – Returning Home to Truth (Rev. Gina)We round out our month of Returning Home by returning home to Truth, the Spiritual Truth that when we keep our eyes lifted to Spirit we can create miracles, we can attain lofty goals and dreams and we can create day-to-day lives that simply work better! This Month’s AffirmationToday I return home to the Divine that I am as I see beyond appearances and see only God in all situations. I return home to the knowing that God is the Source of all my Good. Today, I return home to Truth.
